Chapter 203: The Birth of a Movie
The dead tree in the courtyard of the teahouse in the four generations of Hai Hutong is indeed the dragon claw willow, which is the boss behind the teahouse, Huang Youlong, the boss of the Qianzhen Dongrunda Investment Company, said it himself. The owner of the old Yu teahouse is surnamed Yu, and he is a cousin of Huang Youlong, who helps Huang Youlong take care of this teahouse and use it to entertain related households.
Huang Youlong has a good relationship with Ma Yun, and when Ma Yun came to the capital for a treat, he borrowed Lao Yu's teahouse.
As for Zhao Wei, Huanzhu Gege back then has now become Huang Youlong's girlfriend, but few people know about it now, and there is no news in the media.
For female celebrities, it is no longer fashionable news, Bai Yuhan is not surprised, although he has been in the entertainment industry for a short time, he chats and farts with big-name stars, and does not have much curiosity to care about their private lives.
Today's gathering does not have any theme, that is, Ma Yun pulled a group of people to get to know each other, talk about investment, and talk about the entertainment industry. Bai Yuhan is not keen on business matters, basically Wang Ziwen is dealing with these people, he is in charge of tasting tea, and occasionally makes a little opinion on the topic of the entertainment industry.
Most of the time, I just sit and play with my phone.
He used a Gionee mobile phone, and Gionee mobile phone was a sponsor of the running man, and he sent a lot of mobile phones over, and Bai Yuhan kept using it, making calls, sending text messages, and surfing the Internet. Now the smartphone has just started by Apple's iPhone, and the Android system has not yet been developed. Fiction doesn't work.
is playing with his mobile phone like Bai Yuhan, it is Zhao Wei.
Zhao Wei still wanted to integrate into the circle at first, but it was obvious. The current Zhao Wei is not mature enough to be compared with the braggart of the bosses of these companies. Can't add to the topic. had to be like Bai Yuhan, who was unwilling to talk nonsense, fiddling with his mobile phone and chatting with Bai Yuhan by the way.
"Hey, swordsman, is your film "People in Embarrassment" finished?"
"It's over."
"I'm looking forward to when it will be edited and there will be a few screenings. The first film of the White Swordsman. I'm curious about what kind of story will be filmed. β
Bai Yuhan was curious: "It should be next year, and there will definitely be a few screenings before the summer vacation to explore the taste." But. It's just a low-budget comedy, is it so worth looking forward to? β
"Why isn't it worth looking forward to, you don't know yet, my first year of Nortel's MFA course. One of them is a film evaluation class. In the class led by my tutor Tian Zhuangzhuang, I studied your film "The Tuner", and I also wrote a 3,000-word film review draft, and I almost asked you for advice at that time. β
MFA is Master of Fine Arts, and Bai Yuhan's graduate program in Drama and Film and Television is an MFA course. Zhao Wei studied directing courses at Nortel and is also one of the MFAs.
"When did you read the MFA?"
"'07."
"Haha, I'm one year older than you. I read the MFA in 06, speaking of which. I'm still your senior. Bai Yuhan consciously took a lot of advantage.
Zhao Wei disdainfully: "What's wrong with being late for studying, you are a post-80s, pretending to be a big-tailed wolf in front of your sister after 70s." β
"There is no order to learn, the master is the teacher, I am younger than you, but I read early. When you are in class, you still have to learn my works, it is not an exaggeration to call me a teacher, the ancients have a teacher, I will reluctantly be your teacher. β
"Go and go, don't take advantage of me. But then again, I studied for a master's degree in directing, and I felt that making movies was really not a little difficult, and even short films felt very troublesome. How come it is that when it comes to you, it feels very easy to make films, one after another, without a break to take a breath. β
Bai Yuhan chattered: "I have special filming skills. β
"What a trick, teach me."
"A secret that is not told."
"What's stingy, it's still a fellow."
"Who is a fellow countryman with you, am I from Luzhou, you are from Wuhu."
"Whether it's Luzhou or Wuhu, aren't they all from Hui'an, the villagers see the villagers, the eyes are full of tears, just tell me, what secrets do you have when you make films?" Zhao Wei is curious.
"It's a personal talent, you can't learn it."
"You didn't even say it, how do you know if I can't learn."
Bai Yuhan coughed: "Alas, listen up." β
"Listen."
"Do you have to write a script before making a film? If it were me, I'd come up with the beginning, the end, and then the middle part would be left alone. Then, I went online to pull some funny, funny and fun jokes, and stuffed them in the middle of the beginning and end, feeling which joke is suitable for adding to the beginning and end, without affecting the overall feeling. Then list it as a material, so that the material has accumulated more, and you can start to organize it. Pick and choose, and a film will become. Bai Yuhan flickered vigorously.
Zhao Wei frowned: "Why is it so unreliable to listen to what you said?" β
"I forgot to say, this is what ordinary screenwriters and directors do, and I'm different."
"What are you?"
"When I wrote the script, I actually already had the complete plot in my head, and I just had to translate what was in my head into the script."
"."
"It's not, I said it earlier, it's a personal talent, you can't learn it."
"It's really fake." Zhao Wei was skeptical.
"Fake." Bai Yuhan yawned, when he pretended to be true, he was also false, there was nowhere to do nothing, sometimes when he told the truth, others would only think that you were telling a lie.
"It's not fun." Yawning is contagious, Zhao Wei also hit one, then took out her pink phone and looked at the time.
Bai Yuhan glimpsed that this mobile phone was shining, which was different from ordinary mobile phones: "What kind of mobile phone are you, it feels like a diamond and dazzling." β
βvertuγβ Zhao Wei handed over the phone.
Bai Yuhan looked at it, it seemed to be really inlaid with diamonds: "What brand is vertu, I haven't heard of it, is this really inlaid with diamonds?" β
"A brand of Nokia has a total of ten diamonds."
"As soon as you say that, I remember Nokia's luxury phone. Heard before, what is the slogan, luxury. Regardless of all luxury. How much does this mobile phone cost? β
"Hundreds of thousands, it's not very clear."
"Amazing, your mobile phone is enough for a well-off family of three to eat for more than ten years, how can you be willing to buy such an expensive mobile phone, you look at me, I am still using the mobile phone sent by the manufacturer." Domestic loudspeaker standby Wang Jinli. β
"I'm a dragon for this." Zhao Wei smiled sweetly.
"Understood." Bai Yuhan sighed with emotion, "It's good to be a woman, I don't have a rich woman to chase me." β
"Come on. You are also the boss yourself, and your worth is no worse than that of the rich. Especially your B station Weibo, the momentum is very strong now, rushing to go public, right? β
"It's good to be listed. It doesn't matter if you can't. Originally, station b was an accidental product, our goal at the beginning was to do film and television, but I didn't expect it to be mixed with the Internet again, and it got bigger and bigger, and it was impossible to let go. It can only be said that taking one step at a time is one step at a time, and now the company is in good condition and can be maintained. Hey, by the way, do you have station b Weibo? β
"Yes."
"So what are you waiting for. Mutual fans, what's the latest development. @ on Weibo, and you'll know it. β
Here, the two are using their mobile phones on Weibo to follow each other. A voice interjected: "Director Bai, Zhao Wei, what are you whispering." β
"Mr. Xu." Bai Yuhan turned his head and saw that it was Xu Xiaoping walking over, "We are using Station B Weibo to follow each other, does Mr. Xu have Weibo?" β
"Yes, I'm still following you."
"Follow me, why don't I know?"
"Because I haven't added V certification yet, I have too few fans, and I'm embarrassed to add V." Xu Xiaoping took out his mobile phone, and also went online to log on to Station B Weibo, and showed it to Bai Yuhan, there are actually a lot of fans on it, more than a thousand.
"If you add a V, a celebrity like you often posts some current affairs commentary, or financial information, and the number of fans will definitely increase. Weibo is also to be operated, and you often post Weibo in order to attract the attention of others. I just brush one every day, even if it's just a boring sentence, it's better than nothing. You see, I have 1.5 million followers now. β
chatted about Weibo, Xu Xiaoping didn't have nothing to do, and soon he turned to the topic: "Bai Dao ......"
"Just call me a swordsman."
"That's okay, how about you call me Lao Xu."
"Okay, I'll call you Lao Xu, in fact, I have several friends here who are called Lao Xu, Xu Jinglei, Xu Zheng......"
"As long as I don't bump into them, Lao Xu is my name, and there is no disagreement. I've been following you for a long time, and I've been following you as a director since you made "All in a Two". Xu Xiaoping said.
Bai Yuhan said with a smile: "I have always wanted to say thank you to you, I have read some reports, when I was bombarded, you were in the newspaper and spoke for me." β
"I just can't get used to seeing those reporters holding chicken feathers as arrows...... I've been working on a script lately......"
When Xu Xiaoping said that he was pondering the script, Bai Yuhan thought about it.
It's definitely "The Chinese Partner".
Because the story told by "Chinese Partner" is basically based on New Oriental.
However, when Xu Xiaoping said the script he thought, Bai Yuhan found that he was right, but it was not too correct. Xu Xiaoping's script outline is indeed the outline of "Chinese Partner", but in terms of details, it is full of too many different things, which are completely different from the movie.
It's a different story.
After finishing the outline, Xu Xiaoping asked: "How about it, swordsman, do you think this book of mine can be made into a movie?" β
Bai Yuhan exclaimed: "Lao Xu, do you think we have a good heart." β
"What do you mean?"
"Wait a minute, I'll call Mr. Wang to come over." Bai Yuhan said, so he called Wang Ziwen, and waited for Wang Ziwen to come over, "Mr. Wang, Mr. Xu wants to make a movie about his entrepreneurial history." β
Wang Ziwen was suddenly surprised: "Yes, the swordsman also thought about making an entrepreneurial movie, and when we discussed it, we even thought of the name of the movie, and especially took New Oriental as an example to discuss." β
It was Xu Xiaoping's turn to be surprised: "Yes, you also have the idea to make such a movie?" β
Wang Ziwen said: "The name of the movie has been thought of, it is called "Chinese Partner", and the swordsman said very stubbornly that he has to prepare three protagonists to be called Chinese Partner, and our company is four partners, otherwise he plans to shoot the story of our company." β
Xu Xiaoping was overjoyed: "So, my book has hope?" β
"Of course, if you want to trust, just give me the book." Bai Yuhan said with a smile.
"I don't trust you, I'll tell you this book? Originally, I was here to probe your tone and see if you had any intention of making such a movie. There are a lot of famous Chinese directors, but those who have their own entrepreneurial experience, that is, you, this book, uh, "Chinese Partner", if you don't shoot, other directors can't make a taste. β
After speaking, Bai Yuhan, Wang Ziwen, and Xu Xiaoping laughed together.
Zhao Wei was stunned beside him: "So, I witnessed the birth of a movie within ten minutes?" (To be continued......)
